AuthorTopic: Forty Year Jig (Read 578 times)

I heard this tune played at the Saturday evening session of the Halsway Melodeon weekend and really liked it but haven't found any reference to it on the interweb. Can anyone point me to the 'abc' or a video please?Many thanksNick

There's a tune by the Swedish band Vasen called "The Thirty Year Jig". They wrote it for someone's birthday, and so I played it for a friend's 30th. It's a great tune. As the years have passed I've incrementally changed the title. We're now well past forty-something. There's a discussion of the tune and several different versions of the ABC's on The Session here: https://thesession.org/tunes/5304

Well, I'm not certain whether that was it (honest guv, I'd only had a couple!), but it's a good tune all the same...I misheard the title as something like 'forty mile bridge' so not much help from me !
